    Glam Slam: The Friday Five: How To Wear Spring's Biggest Trends

    Access Hollywood – Tue, Feb 14, 2012

    I was so excited to get the ginormous new Spring Issue of InStyle--I devoured all 552 pages STAT! So many good things to check out, including the handy guide to spring's biggest trends and helpful tips for how to wear them.

    THE TREND: Bold Pastels Why We Love It: Like blossoms pumped up with Miracle-Gro, these exuberant hues entice even those who shy away from paler versions. To add power to this glory, pair pastels with...more pastels! How to Wear It: Choose clothes with clean lines and balance solid on solid.

    THE TREND: Modern Romance Why We Love It: Take classic elements like ruffles, florals, lace, and peplums and apply them to shapes that are lean, geometric, and exaggerated. It's a gutsy yet glorious idea. The result is femininity that replaces dainty with drama. And we're smitten! How to Wear It: Accessories should be stark and nails pretty and pale.

    THE TREND: Mad Prints Why We Love It: Pushing fashion to the limit is not for everyone, but if you eagerly embrace bright colors, big florals, and bold graphics, these guaranteed attention-getters are for you. Inspired by a passion for retro, the energy of the art world, and advances in digital printing, spring's patterns let you celebrate your individuality. How to Wear It: Pair the bold prints with black for nice contrast.

    THE TREND: Pleats Why We Love It: Whether they have knife, accordion, or superfine crystal pleats, these precisely-folded tops, bottoms, and dresses take on a sophistication that goes beyond the pleats on private school uniforms. Such feminine detailing, with just a trace of metallics and shine, generates sexiness that had a hint of reserve. Plus, they look amazing on--or off--the dance floor. How to Wear It: Wear pleats with strappy platforms to give off a cool vibe.

    THE TREND: Sporty Why We Love It: How much fun is it to step out in those high-contrast colors direct from the playing field in fabrics designed for comfort, speed, and breathability! There's a sense of freedom in these weightless, body-conscious pieces: You don't have to do anything but strut down the street knowing you look good. How to Wear It: Pair sporty-inspired clothes with open shoes--and definitely not sneakers!

    For more on spring runway trends and how to wear them, InStyle's March issue is on newsstands now.

    SWEET TREAT! I walked into my office today to find it decorated for my birthday this weekend and a nice box of chocolates from my co-workers! Can't go wrong with chocolate (or cupcakes!) in my book! If you're looking for a gourmet sweet treat, I dunno, maybe for Valentine's Day on Tuesday, check out Vosges Haut-Chocolat for unusual and stylish goodies. Yum!
